A warm and wonderful film to cheer a cold day here in Alaska.
Brings back memories of my childhood and youth spent in Weardale, it was a decent cycle ride from where we lived in Durham.
Excellent vid.
My dad left school on a Friday age 14 and was darn pit on Monday morning, a face worker undercutting the coal seam.

Brought back many happy memories of my time in Stanhope in the late 60s living at Railway cottages but originally from Durham..Remember the Cement works & Harperly ,as kids we used to play in the ford & down the dene..We eventually moved away but as a child they were the best times,lovely place & people ,still have me I spy book from the post office back in the day & a polished piece of spar sitting proudly on the sideboard on Bodmin Moor..Great film,thanks for the memories.
Nenthead near Alston only has a Community Shop . They closed all the Post Offices with a shop within down.
As a Weardaler living abroad, this brought me so much joy. I can't wait until global travel is doable again so I can visit home
Enjoyed the journey back in time, living in Western Canada now but played on those quarry heaps as a kid & remember playing football with a coconut at the fair. Doug Bainbridge.
I loved watching this, I'm Weardale born and bred and still live here, whenever I've been away it's always good to see those hills in the distance when I come back, that's when I know I'm home.
Great short film. Lovely to see two ladies that I knew many years ago.
Great to hear that!
A beautiful little film, thank you. I regularly visit Weardale when I'm in Britain.
Thanks very much, we appreciate the feedback!

Weardale is one of my family's spiritual homes. Family names - Roddam, Featherstone, Hodgson, etc...........
